An amazing piece of engineering

Date of Review:  Dec 13, 2003
The Bottom Line: An outstanding value for the money, this super-well designed GPS can find your way and help you find fish, but it is also great for collecting electronic mapping data.
Review: Admittedly I love mapping and maps, but the Garmin 76 is probably my all-time favorite electronic device. It is engineered and built extremely well -- very rugged and with an excellent user interface. Although I haven't used Magellens and other...

My Precioussss!!!

Date of Review:  Sep 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: This is a great GPS unit with a lot of bang for the buck. At about the size of a large scientific calculator, it is portable and full of functions.
Review: To quote Gollum and Frodo in the review title, this GPSMap 76S is my favorite toy. I like it because it is slightly larger than most handhelds, and therefore the screen is easier to read and follow. I have used it for about a month now and use it...

Full featured GPSr, great screen

Date of Review:  Sep 7, 2005
The Bottom Line: This is a great GPSr, especially if you have some experience with GPSing and are looking to upgrade. Might be overkill for a first unit??
Review: I've been using GPSr's for about 10 years and this is a recent upgrade from a Garmin 12CX. I bought this on eBay (second hand) for $325.00. I have been using this for a few weeks and am very happy with it. The electronic compass is great for slow...

GPS 76 and 76Map

Date of Review:  Aug 17, 2007
The Bottom Line: Excellent choice as a backup to a larger GPS Chartplotter, or as your primary GPS on a small boat. Accurate. Rugged. Reliable.
Review: I own one of each of these models, the second purchased as an upgrade so I could use the older 76 as a backup. The 76 itself replaced a Garmin 48 (another lovable little unit) on my boat. Both were available on-sale for around $200 at the time of...

Best GPS unit out there

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2004
Review: I've had mine for about two years, and it is an incredible GPS unit. I have used it on the ocean, under heavy canopy and in the city. It locks on quickly and is very accurate. Even under heavy canopy, it gives better positioning than any other unit...

Undisclosed Locations

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: If we lived in a simpler world, a kinder world, this would be a lovely device.
Review: Back in my more naive days, I once went ahead with the purchase of a Garmin GPSMAP 76CS Receiver. Because I could be called a bit of a spelunker, and I frequently make global treks, I figured a global device like this was right up my alley.

Best Multi-Purpose GPS for the Money

Date of Review:  Sep 4, 2003
The Bottom Line: You'll be hard pressed to find another GPS with this combination of features in this small a package at any price and at $305 it's an excellent value.
Review: My search for a GPS device started as a result of my tendency to get lost in the Chesapeake Bay. I needed a GPS device to tell me where I was and which way I needed to go. I preferred to have a device with mapping capabilities, but after looking at...

Garmin 76 Battery tab

Date of Review:  Oct 5, 2007
Review: Garmin 76 is a great little GPS Unit, however, one battery is held in place on the (-) side with a small metal tab vs a spring like the other battery. The tab is subject to fatigue and will break off yielding the unit useless.

Date of Review:  Feb 7, 2004

Great unit

Date of Review:  Oct 4, 2003
Review: This is a fantastic GPS unit. The large screen is easy to read, the menu is easy to navigate, and the unit is very full-featured. The built-in compass is a great feature, but I haven't found much use for the barometer yet. You can do a side-by-side...
